Restoring dried out markers

Don't you just hate it when you take a marker out and you get that dried-out look? I know I do!



Take a pair of pliers and pull the brush tip out



Spray just 1 or 2 squirts of Perfect Refresher down into the barrell. I will also usually spritz the tip that I just took out.



Set it down in a jar so the tip is facing down. After just 20 minutes....look how much ink came out on the brush!!!



It doesn't matter what kind of marker it is. Here's a dried out Krylong copper leaf pen. Look how dried the marks were:



I spritzed the end, put some refresher down in the barrell and immediately, it started painting again!



I have had many of my Marvy Markers since 1992. SERIOUSLY!!! I just keep bringing them back to life using Ranger's Perfect Refresher.

But once again...if you think you want to toss your markers out.....send them to me. I will repair them and get them to the local home school network so that these kids can have a chance to learn how to play! After all...it's not what you learn....it's just that you learn to play! LOL!!!
